I’ve been playing with salt for a long time now, here I’m going to show a tip on how to use it.
Going back to my days when working at Dream Lakes in the beginning of the summer months, when the weather was just starting to warm up, I would use a salt tablets in my PVA bag with chopped up boilies. This method worked well and helped put some good size fish on the bank.
When I returned to England I tried to source the best salt to use, and after a long time playing with all different types, Maldon salt was the best by far. You can now get this in most supermarkets; I even use it in all of my cooking.
When I placed sea salt into lake water, the polar water molecules cluster around the salt and this gives off a charge from the electrons in the salt and with the flavours of the bait coming off at the same time it results in a good feeding frenzy for any fish in the area.
